what is wrong with the social finction? If I can get a judge to curb a corporation's behavior as outside acceptable norms of conduct, then that is a social good....the real issue is who makes the norms...if left solely to judges and lawyers and stare decisis it will be a very static model...if one throws a strongly liberal legislature/executive into the mix then us lawyers can do more good....remember, the PLSRA was a legislative enactment brought about because of the success of lawyers.......

It's got nothing to do with you personally at all. You're clearly a person of excellent character and politics. The same is true of many ad people and investment bankers. It's the social function of the occupation, apart from the individuals who perform it, that's the issue.
